[A83] TI-83 Symbols




Does anyone know the romcall to create a symbol? I'm looking for the call
that does the same thing as _createprog only it creates a symbol not a
program. I am working on creating a program similar to attrib only for the
83. The only features I am working on are a protect/unprotect scheme (I have
this working) and a hiding scheme. I have several ideas for hiding, the
first being the basic change the first character to an unprinting char. The
problem with that is I want it to be completely user-friendly (doesn't
require a user input 1st char to unhide). I could also use different
nonprinting chars as ID numbers (that reference the actual 1st char) but
then the program is limited by the number of nonprinting chars. My most
recent idea would be to copy the entire program into a symbol to hide, then
copy it back to unhide. I just don't know how practical speed and memory
wise this would be. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
